Welcome to another Pink Saturday. I thought I would show you the package that arrived from Nancy at My Crafty Little Page.
photo borrowed from Nancy's flickr
We were partners in the Vintage Pink Christmas Swap. Nancy sent me the most wonderful package full of lots of pink vintage and handmade goodies. Among the treasures were the cutest Precious Moments ornaments and an adorable vintage pink baby shoe.
She's also a talented artist and she made up cute tussie mussies, and the cutest little spool with button flowers. Look at this pretty pink bird.
I can't wait to put her on my Christmas tree. I keep telling my boys that the tree is going to be pink, red and turquoise but they don't believe me. We'll see...
I'm showing just a tiny little tease of what I sent Nancy.
For more pink than a room full of little ballerinas head on over to Beverly's and you'll find lots more pink posts to read about.











I missed out on all the fun! The pink bird is a little sweetie. Swaps can be a lot of fun!

Betty, What a beautiful array of vintage pink loveliness. So many beautiful treasures. The pink bird is going to look fantastic on your tree this year.
After the little tease I look forward to seeing what you sent in the swap.

Betty,
I am just catching up on this and your last post. What fun it must be to receive such an abundance of treasures. Each one is precious. And the sneak peak of the treasures that you sent looked delightful. When you hold something that has history it adds a special charm that can't duplicated in new merchandise.
And I must say, in your last post both you and your daughter looked divine ! And the fair looked like such a lot of fun. And what fun those Christmas workshops that you had in your garage must have been despite the hard work.
I just love your handmade aprons. The vintage fabric bring back such warm feelings. And the "model" of the aprons is looking slimmer and trimmer THAN EVER !
Congrats on all your hard work to keep yourself healthy ! Hugs, Janice

I'm expecting my pink package any day. I'm soooo excited. It's my first swap and it's with a lovely lady named Mary ( merrymermaid) from California. Your partner sure was an early bird good for her. I was early also. It took 3 weeks to get to her. You have such beautiful vintage items to share with us. In my neck of the woods they are truly hard to find. I had the darnedest time filling my box! Oh I hope she's happy with the goodies also.
